So he sits with me while I do it. I let my son onto the computer with me because he doesn’t really let me alone long enough to do any work. So he sits with me while I do it.

That way we can both "work" on the computer at the same time. Noggin keeps her very busy. DH is going to get an old, cheap computer to let Turkeybutt play on.

Hubby is talking more and more about getting high-speed Internet, and I think that would be a great boon to our family.

Thanks for commenting. Sometimes people do take things the wrong way. You never said that you needed to sit in front of your computer all day. There are times when all parents need to get things done. I think it's important for kids to learn to wait their turn. Sometimes you just have to say, "I love you and I'll give you my full attention in about 5 minutes. I just need to finish this project." Most kids will go for that. Hi Wendy. Thanks for commenting.

Although it was very popular, people read it and thought I was suggesting that they work 24-7 and use my list to shove off their parenting duties onto a computer. I'm glad that you said, "there are times when you need to get things done." That was exactly my point, too! :D Karen – you know, I don’t think I have ever received such a push-back as I did with that post.
